Constantly on the hunt and suffering from hallucinations that drive his violent nature, an unnamed man is capturing women and savagely beating them to death. Meanwhile, a woman is luring men into a violent end, by way of her knife. Driven by the same force to make the opposite sex suffer, the killers’ fates intertwine. The two must face off in a battle to the death, in which they are forced to reveal the horrible truth behind their addiction to murder.
“Brutal” takes an interesting approach to its visuals, drawing heavy influence from Western “Grindhouse” films, using a filter to make the footage appear grainy, damaged, and with light and color fluctuations. Unfortunately, the visual styling ends up feeling misguided, as other than applying the filter it does not imitate any other aspects of the “Grindhouse” genre. Despite trying to dirty up the film, it is apparent it was shot on digital. The cinematography is also a step above most “Grindhouse” productions, with Takashi Hirose proving he has talent behind the camera. Exterior shots to those taking place in small spaces are all competently framed, lit, and transition well. The decision to add an effect on top of the work hurts the film’s imagery and even gives a sense of desperation to try to capture a certain type of nostalgia with the audience, instead of relying on its own strengths. It is unfortunate when one creative choice can hurt a production so much.
The story of “Brutal” is simple but effective, it does attempt some sort of social commentary about the violent nature of men and women, but it does not offer enough depth into the subject to justify the amount of violence on display. The film does end on a strong note with an interesting twist, with a reveal that is bound to gross some out, while giving others a chuckle. In spite of its simple nature, those who enjoy films that make them somewhat uncomfortable and enjoy the challenge of getting through some ultra-violence, “Brutal” poses a fun and entertaining challenge in that regard.
你我皆为战士
找领馆就够蠢了你还离开领馆送死 后面是怎么回事 一命抵一命？孤胆超英模式？呆梨人也有这么幼稚可爱的价值观吗？
小黑胖子约翰·大卫·华盛顿，没有继承老爸一点的个人魅力和气场，大屁股跑步时不住的漏腚沟，这种屌丝气质反而刚好和主角契合。一番位女一坎妹火速领了便当以后，真的很难再吸引我观看了。
你我皆为战士
设定在希腊，户外，城市，应该是春夏，阳光感很好，喜欢这个场景。色调也少见。最近像黑寡妇，X特遣队集结都还特别点。男主是丹泽尔华盛顿儿子，之前信条的主角，感觉这演员还不错，继续加油。
当代“The Man Who Knew Too Much”。以身体感知适应陌生环境，穆赫兰道式地进入城市/核心，在贝克特式荒诞中成为英雄。美国大使馆办公室《帝国事业：毁灭》。
挺……无聊的，前几十分钟的重点我觉得应该是个道路交通安全提醒：请勿疲劳驾驶+系好安全带，男主能逃这么久只能说种族和性别加成以及希腊没有天网系统（？）
这是什么啊，而且有些情节和构架过于政治正确了
网飞出品的公路片，粘点政治色彩。整体还行吧 7分。
我以后说的男主女主都是按照戏份多少来定的，如果戏份差不多/不准确，我会直接说名字）
[视]海报有<信条>感，超出预期。之前有天点开，发现开篇第一个镜头所暗示的本片节奏风格挑人，换了一天，在合适心情的日子里看完合适风格的电影很幸运。异国他乡，语言不通，白人国度的黑人，摄影文艺，配乐有点A24，场景细节丰富体现内心焦虑，<糖果人>元素。劳拉客串，<老去>女主眼熟，<狼3>反派很像<警3>天使和马尔福，美大使馆室内设计还行，与希腊街头形成鲜明对比
艾丽西亚竟然只打了个酱油 这是老美又在宣扬正义的美国公民在国外办好事呗 一般
全靠哈登的演技和坂本龙一的配乐看完，把漂亮国又讽刺了一遍。只是很不明白，一帮憨憨为什么不在哈登撞破房子时就干掉他或者让他自生自灭，反而送医院后还拼命追杀他？ 哈登返回现场才触发任务吗？wtf
小成本電影。估計是不會上院線了，無知名演員上陣，成果雖沒好萊塢追殺驚險緊湊，卻更貼近真實。全片希臘拍攝，很少有電影在此取景，也順將國家動盪赤裸呈現.....換一角度看也算是小佳作。
给四星是觉得六分有点低了，平衡一下。个人感觉电影整体还是有可看性的，开头部分有些无聊，中间部分不错，结尾有点扯，不过整体来说还是能让人看下去。个人感觉6.5分左右比较合适。（按豆瓣对一般美国大片的评分趋势还可以再高一点，七分左右）
别说了，先出Beckett又出Kate，下一部该是Castle了！
找领馆就够蠢了你还离开领馆送死 后面是怎么回事 一命抵一命？孤胆超英模式？呆梨人也有这么幼稚可爱的价值观吗？
还行，感觉像是80年代的电影，从摄影到动作场面。
很不错的一部惊悚悬疑片，虽然情节并不精细但影片的气氛确实是做足了功夫，镜头也很有些老电影的感觉，四星。
纯公路片，大男主公路片。前面的恩爱都是浮云，没有任何意义。整部片子都是追逐公路戏，看得好累，观感比较差。如果当作当地的旅游宣传倒是OK。
